Christmas Blessings

We celebrated Christmas at our house this year. Grandma and Grandpa came over early to help open presents and then Tia, Byriah and Loretta came for dinner. I am so very grateful for all of the endless blessings or family has received and continues to receive from God.

Ready, Set, Open!!!




Ready for Santa

How could Santa resist these sweet faces?

Cookies for Santa...

Adrian was ready to put out Santa's cookies before it even got dark on Christmas Eve and was ready for bed at 8:00. We filled Santa's special plate with cookies and Santa's special cup with milk and waited in anticipation for his arrival!

Lucky Number Seven!

Our little man is seven. We celebrated his birthday at one of his favorite places, "Pump It Up". So many friends came to share in the celebration and share his special Indiana Jones birthday cake. I still can't believe that he is seven, it has gone by so very fast. Adrian is growing into an amzaing person. He is smart and funny and inquisitive and loving and thoughtful and an amazing big brother to Roman. We are so proud of Adrian for so many reasons.

The Polar Express!

We took a ride on the Polar Express the day after Thanksgiving. Eduardo, Mom and I took the boys on the magical ride. We got to drink hot chocolate, received a perfect sleigh bell from Santa and even had our tickets punched by the conductor. Roman has been punching random pieces of paper he likes to call "tickets" since weeks before the trip and he is still at it. He loves his choo choo train ticket and bell.
